T-Mobile And Sprint CEOs John Legere And Marcelo Claure On Mega Merger | CNBC
He almost said “Dumb, dumber and yellow” and stopped himself. Love it.
John is out of control 😂😂😂😭😭😭
John is absolut great, he needs a TV show...
I've been with TMO over 10 years and I have pretty much been happy with them for the most part. I had Metro before they were bought out by TMO as well. I've been really happy with the coverage as well as prices in comparison to what I've seen from AT&T with my friends and family. I'm happy their doing this. He's being like the Elon Musk of Cellphones services. lol.
The Dro love t-mobile I been with them for over 15 years When they had the flip phones lol
I have not been with them as long as you have but I'm not sold on this deal yet. T-Mobile has not answered any of the hard questions and so far has been playing on people's national concerns with China. I mean I do agree a combined company can provide better coverage and speeds. However, who will keep them in check as far as priceing, who will make them keep investment up in the network and not just do some form of psuedo 5g like AT&T is trying to market.
At the end of the day they are a company and unless I see a contract that gurantees some of the statements being made I will not be fully sold.
The Dro I totally agree with you!! I think this will be totally give us all better data and coverage!! I can’t wait.....the one thing I never liked about Sprint was that they are on CDMA! I can’t wait!!
merengue. clacico
bh
Is it me or is the guy all the way to the right drunk?
Lol
I'm in with 5G and more jobs😎
Zena Anderson you must also enjoy sticking your head in the microwave do a little research about what 5 G is going to be doing to especially the people that are carrying the phone in their pocket or having it stuck to their head from the videos I've seen about 5G it's kind of like sticking your head right up against the microwave while it's running but 24/7.
Neezy Ko make sure u put it right in ur kids room, see what happens.
If you believe that i have land in Antarctica to sell you.
Tom Tull Oh cry about it. Don’t go out in the sun because you’ll be exposed to radiation!
Zena Anderson I’m down for sprint to have a better network
John is amazing. Want to see what he brings with this new network.
He's not honest just like you.
@Charles Melton lol, like he's gonna meet you!
THE ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLAR QUESTION!: What is Marcelo's role in the company after this deal closes?
Life or Reality board of directors
ilrelevance in the shadow of John of course.
Life or Reality He gets kicked out because he incompetent , he ruined sprint , he like the Secretary of State Hillary , while Legere is like Donald Trump who wants to make lower prices and better plans.
Amd RyzenFan agreed up until the Trump reference. I don't believe ledger should be compared to a conman.
Life or Reality He'll wind up getting a really nice Severance.
John can run the whole thing.
John is a Smart Guy, if he had the slightest thought it wasn't going to work, he'd tell the investors to pull out.
This will work out great
DARK VADER yeah 😒
Charles Green Why the sad face? You don't think this will work out for Tmob and Sprint.
Customers will have across the world coverage.
DARK VADER as a metro user 😓
Charles Green It'll be alright bro.
Needed to read this Thanks
All the dislikes are Verizon and att customers lmao
Your bill is going down because all of us are going back to flip phones with no internet access..5G technology is going to cause cancer and major illness..and we the people want to be healthy..and don't want to die just to make a call..we don't actually watch Movies on our phones..we don't..
Val Hall
I constantly watch movies and RUclips and such on my phone and rely on good data coverage for my business which puts me on the road a lot. I run data heavy apps for my business. We need better more reliable 4g and 5g service. Again, I want reliable 4g at least. They have to prove they can pull it off. 5g will help my business. Bottom line
What you're saying is nonsense with no foundation in physics Val hall.
I STILL remember Altel 😭
Charles Green Verizon purchased them a while back.
Cam23 yeah cause my Grammy had altel, and the Verizon (DUMB) rates FLEW UP soooo HIGH!
I was on Sprint before T-Mobile. Sprint seemed fine and then the management changed and then they got our bills wrong, we lost true unlimited data, customer service was terrible, etc.
My family switched to T-Mobile and that's been great. Cingular was very good, and AT&T ruined that after a merger but I don't see that happening with T-Mobile/Sprint.
Since AT&T likes to squash small companies and not work with them they never do well aquiring companies.
Sprint and T-Mobile were smart and are merging instead of buying each other out.
Sprint and t-mobile you mean.
I’m with Verizon and switched from T-mobile almost two years ago. Mainly because I use a lot of data and I wasn’t too happy with the speeds. But I T-mobile wasn’t horrible though sprint omg it was bad really bad. I had them a couple of years before t-mobile. I love the Verizon network! I’m often the only one with service if I travel with family and friend. But even with all my love for vz I might check out T-mobile again in couple years from now. I love the T-mobile CEO John! I believe he’s going to really shake things up.
I don't support this. FCC should ban this merger. Less competition higher prices!
Juan-Diego Salim okay sorry sir that’s not going happen have a great life
You mean better competition? It's not like the top two would be dethroned because of this merger.
@@TheGoreforce yeah price fixing and worst service isn't a worry, suuuure
Merger = less competition.
Sprint is a monster. They have the worst customers service ever. I hope all these Corporations get so big they begin to eat themselves.
Dan Roskamp tmobile customers services is pretty good compared to my experience with att and Verizon. On Verizon I encountered some rude lady chewing gum and att representative who accused me about my connection being choppy.
That is your story and I respect it my story is much different and darker. Corporations need to be held responsible for not offering a good service and when they don't listen and capitalize your hardship all you have is your word so speak it.
I've been with Sprint for over 12 years. Customer service has been great and bill stays the same with in $0.01 every month.
Love Sprint.
The problem i see with the new technology is it doesn't help if you do not have enough towers for your customers. Ill give example i am with t mobile and by my job i get 40-70mb a sec. There is mostly companies there and not much residential housing. When i get home i get 5-15mb a sec with the tower being 1 mile away. All residential area very few businesses. When speed drops to less then a1 mb i call customer support to complain and the tower is always congested. So until you can fix this issue then to me new technology doesn't help anything.
dale f
That’s what I’m saying. Data on sprint and t mobile currently sucks. They have to improve this before I’ll believe they can pull off 5g
I dont see costs going down but if they can hold steady and the speed go way up I see it as a win for consumers.
i have t mobile its great my bill is about $160 a month never went up 2 lines unlimited
I don't see the value they operate on different networks
crashweaverda He said they're going to integrate the networks and they'll combine resources to roll out 5g quick.
MetroPCS used to be CDMA but that was never a problem.
You combine the networks to work together... It's really not hard.
Sprint customers get better reception
John Legere could sell people on buying a parachute made of bricks and make it seem like the best idea in the world.
I want to move to T-Mobile but I’m scared of not getting good service.
Another merger oh joy. 😒
Can't wait!
“WHAT KIND OF AMERICAN TEL-CO COMPANIES” WE ARE PEOPLE ARE AMERICANS DEFEND OURSELVES
Jim is for the people!!!
They should make u guys sign and put that in writing just to make sure to us Americans that ur telling the truth
The same was said back when Sprint and Nextel merged 😒. Plus , you can already get both networks with Google project fi.
In my town they just tore down an old taco johns in order to be a new Sprint store directly across from a t mobile store.
prepaid side Sprint and T-Mobile we just got to be prepared for what goes on the road and just keep watching the news and you tube
Happy me and my family have been with TMO for so long
So is Sprint still Going you be Sprint, or will it all just be called the new TMobile
I've read around and it appears the new company would retain the "T-Mobile" name.
So if millimeter wave technology is not expansive how do you explain reconfiguring a dead Cdma technology that Sprint utilizes to convert an entirely different GSM network of Tmobile? Also there's different options than providing 5g through millimeter wave. There's fiber technology. Something that At&t has an abundant source of, and something that TMobile and Sprint have absolutely do not have.
I guess that was what he did not mention, but knows about when he mentioned AT&T, Comcast, and Charter.
1:46 bottom left corner what was that? 😂
Bendew a person cleaning the floor
I DONT BELIEVE ANY OF THIS! Higher speeds Yes lower prices? NOOOO not in the long run
If they aren't cheaper than Verizon they won't give people any reason to switch. They will always be cheaper than Verizon.
They will keep lower prices.
Free market and reduced regulations will allow it to happen.
Steve K T-Mobile has been the best in customer service... They always work with me when I have an issue
As a previous Sprint Customer i can assure these merger will screw up T-Mobile customers.
When i was a sprint customer i had nothing but lies from their employees and most were extremely rude and in one occasion i was told to leave the store and had to call the police on them, as for service their data is horrible i went back to sprint asking for help multiples times and they always gave the same excuse (we are updating our towers)
and i told them this is been happening for two years and still no good service ???
That was the reason why i got kick out of one of their stores because new potential customer were walking out the door when they heard about these issues.
Their phone reception if you work near a military base is also non existence.
that is the reason why i drop SPRINT and move to T-Mobile but if these merger becomes a reality i am dumping T-mobile
And i highly suggested you do the same if you are a T-Mobile customer.
Why do you thing their commercial on you tube comment are blocked
They know thousands of sprint customer will post negative comments because of their poor service and rude employees.
PLEASE I BEG YOU MAKE A CELL PHONE THAT CAN BLOCK ALL CALLS EXCEPT YOUR CONTACT LIST
Ivest on infrastructure that will keep communication available when a hurricane hits. Florida’s Tmo customers went through Irma last year with NO SERVICE while AT&T and Verizon customers networks were intact.
I was a Sprint customer since 2003 and now with MetroPCS. The reason I left Sprint is because it seems they care more about getting new customers rather than taking care of their long term customers.
My only fear with this merger is prices are going to skyrocket and only new customers are going to benefit.
the only way to be profitable is to keep all customers happy new and old. Based on the past and what they just said I doubt they would risk losing any customers since their goal is to expand and become the best deal out of the big 3.
Why dont you ask the ceo of the new company wtffff
John Legere has got me all excited about 5 g now. Must have it!!!
DONT JUST SIT DOWN THERE AND LISTEN TO THE OWNERS INSULTING US AMERICANS WE CAN DO THE SAME AND WE SHOULD GET OUR COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM BACK. No MORE OF US GIVING AWAY OUR JOBS AND OUR TECHNOLOGY SKILLS AND LET OTHERS TAKE OVER
i need my respect for being the owner of both and other companies that i need help with, also as owner i can participate and help you guys out, revenue will grow rapidly with my investing ask jim cramer about iyounggunzs way
This merger needs to happen. Someone will fill the void of 4th competing runner up. Straight talk maybe.
G W Straight Talk is a type of carrier known as an MVNO (mobile virtual network operator), which means that it doesn't run or own a wireless network. Instead, it purchases the right to use towers from AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint. Just saying...
Cricket?
Mc Nugget Cricket is ATT JUST PREPAID! DUH. EVER HERD OF A MVNO?
MightyMouse019 I know what a mvno is. but it is the closest and was used to make a point not differentiate.
G W Well I really want to make a cellphone carrier when I’m older (check out @belliumus on twitter!) so... maybe it will be me 🤷🏻♂️ Haha
What will happen to 4G LTE on Sprint iPhone's would they automatic go to 5G?!
Charles Sherry So it's really about the cellular "radios" in your phone that recieves the signal. Currently no phones have 5g radios, so you will have to upgrade your device when they make phones available with the correct "radio" to receive a 5G signal. LTE Phones as I understand won't be able to receive 5G signals only LTE.
4G will stay since they are combining 2 networks and 5G will be supported on certain phones like the S9 and S9+ Galaxy
I'm disappointed that MR SON dint push Sprint harder and give the investments to make Sprint better. Once sprint is done I will give T Mafia 6 months to a year and if they yank me around I will go to Verizon. I have 1 line with Verizon now. 5 with sprint. All my phones with work fine with Verizon....
Done deal bro!
Tony Gentry has a long way to go
Who cares about 5g....what about the plans & cost ?
This aged quick
Ya right more us call centers.....
Sprint and T-Mobile both already use US call centers.
My company actually supports 9 Sprint and 4 T-Mobile call centers data centers.
Verizon uses off shore and AT&T is hit and miss.
Let's just say it, it's all about frequency spectrum. The military took 900mhz and 800 mhz from Nextel. Sprint needed TMobile's 700mhz spectrum to push 5g or ??
John even said it in the piece.
Notice how Marcelo avoids being asked about prices 🤔 I bet their pricing is gonna be high 😒
I am a tmobile customer and I have the s8+ and my question to you is what is the best cell phone to buy that will have more coverage in the United states far as having a signal just to make calls
Hope this goes through and there are lots of jobs for people,t mobile will be good.
One thing that shouldn't happen is we go backwards,as black and white tv this is america.
I hope TV that t mobile will take over the cable tv too I'm sick of the high rate cable bill and fees too,let's support t mobile for this and get them there job done!!
These creeps are lying
5-G..... A Microwave....
Death Sentence......
I have a verizon grandfathered unlimited using 120gb a month in trying out sprint it hasn't been that bad first month i used 80gb there are some hiccups but 156 to 90 a month is a difference
Hello folks
5 G means 128 antennas in your phone instead of two. ...... tons of radiation
So if you keep your phone in your pocket that means you will be impotent soon
Peacock For Sale
I have lead lined boxers so I’m good
What I've seen with AT&T is yes the price is slightly higher than T-Mobile (not by much), and by far better service all over, higher reception, faster data speeds all over all the time. I don't get that with T-Mobile, I never got that with Sprint. Note that they wont talk about lower prices, because the prices WILL GO UP, but likely be less than AT&T and Verizon as they are currently - inflation and innovation will drive prices up anyway, its natural. I pay about $250 more per month TODAY than I did 10 years ago.
3 Million jobs? LoL more like cut 3 million? This interview has not aged well in 2022.
What will the new tech add to the fees that will certainly add up.
Will Paul still have a job?
Saludos Marcelo Claure bendiciones
Where are you going to leave spectrum they say they are the biggest
I'm with at&t if I see better prices ,I'll change
Eduardo Orama Del Pilar keep commenting !!!!
And liking ur own comment
Rudy Fernandez movies
They paid off my phone with in 15 days I am in paying less then I was with Verizon and I have no complaints about reception
Eduardo Orama Del Pilar I think if you compare T-Mobile plans and AT&T for just Unlimited you will find T-Mobile will save you about $30 a month at this time. For two lines it's $100 and T-Mobile has 50 GB G4 Unlimited. After 50 gigabytes your throttle bag but 3 months ago AT&T throttle juice bag at 25gb. Big difference. Check it out I hope it save you some money.
Eduardo Orama Del Pilar trust me You pay less with t-mobile But see now my dad was military and now gotten the bill down was at 269 they took 100$ off so if you have someone in the military in your family you can get 50% on your bill and we have a family of 4 and the receptions Awesome with this conjoined companies sprint and t-mobile it's going to get better.. been with t-mobile for more then 15 years. The military family plan made this better.. look at the T-mobile One plan You get hotpot tethering too.
Sprint doesn’t even let you use the internet while you’re on the phone🙄😒
I can't wait!!!! when is this happening??
Orquidea Del Norte
It’s not
So now we start to pay for the 5G by adding a line to your bill every time you want to get a deal on a phone in sprint and Tmobile
Save the #DIGIWORLD 😑
John's awesome the whole reason I like tmobile hes very honest
I just hope Sprint understands they are coming on board to join a customer care team @tmobile that is 2nd to none..ie. STELLAR! This merger concerns me because of Sprints lack of proper customer care...( Not just 1 example either) #magentaloyalty
@STS TechAwesome.. Its great you have multiple venues to choose from being in that field. Thank goodness I've only had to deal with 3 in 20 years. So Tmo won for me😁
I literally switched from T-Mobile to Sprint like a month ago, what does this mean? Lol bc I’ll admit Sprints network speed seems to be very slow compared to when i had T-Mobile
If sprint really does go away after the merger? The new T-Mobile should atleast still keep the sprint logo as a turbocharger. Also since boost also have that logo as well... That let people know that sprint is migrated as part of the new T-Mobile. It's just be fair. Also be cooler like nobody has ever done that with their company's logo except for sprint towards boost logo...
I love how they keep attacking at&t . We never talk down about other providers but they’re dreaming if they think they’re gonna catch up to us
Welcome to the back of the bus, AT&T!
Yes it will be higher priced. They will set the new standard. Verizon will be happy to go back to higher pricing.
I'm so excited for this merger💪🏽
This is going to be like when Verizon-alltel, At&t- cingular and Sprint-nextel merged years ago.
Marcelo looks like he's about to get fired. LMAO
I was planning on switching from MetroPCS to T - Mobile but now I'm not so sure . Is there any other viable options ?
Verizon
@@rohan6 shut up nerd
John is so cool! 😂😂😂😂😎
IDK i think that Prices will definitely go up on Tmobile.
Why would they go up???
That would do the opposite effect they want.
I had Sprint. It's not working.
Oh man I just watched Marcelo try and justify Wework. This guy is an expert at lighting money on fire.
Not nationwide. Globally por vavor. China has 280 mln consumers which have2x the avarange income...
i own a bill from sprint if this happen will i still own sprint
I’m in nyc I’m riding with Vzw
I smell a AT&T and Verizon merger somewhere in the near future
Lets Start A Dope Topic that will never happen, they are too greedy for each other.
Won't happen.
AT&T only wants to buy companies and take them over. THEN those companies get ran over and people fired.
Stratton from Verizon won't be bought out.
Sprint and T-Mobile were smart and merged. They didn't buy each other. AT&T and Verizon won't merge because both companies are too greedy.
AT&T and Verizon merge and comes out with 6G and lower prices. :)
Utter nonsense. They would have about 70% market share combined and regulators would never allow that.
Lets Start A Dope Topic Hmmm, I can see that....If they have to run to it.
I think you should save your money and keep LTE
Sprint needs to work on cell tower in pittsford mi 49271 coverage
He is right about AT&T they have done NOTHING good except they are great at ripping off the consumers.
T-Mobile and sprint ,let's what happens
Eduardo Orama Del Pilar. Better competition for third-party carriers
Right because everybody uses 2G still. And 3G is also very prevalent today, I heard it might be the next big thing.
Yeah I know that's my whole point. It's not used anymore it doesn't need to be around. I can't remember the last time my phone connected to 2G or 3G maybe 4 or 5 years ago.
Basically the new google fi. Lol
He has a TelePrompTer to his left. Sprint guy is just talking with no prompter
#Stop5G
Seems like sprint needs more customers and needs to merge with someone like t-mobile who desperately needs more towers to compete in the 5g market.
Jim is hilarious. Troll
Youu Realize`? Since when..
TAKE AN ANGER MANAGEMENT MAN!!!
I agree with Legere. Trump's tax breaks help this big time and will definitely kick off the economy in a positive direction even more so years to come!
How are we to believe this? I left Sprint for T Mobile because Sprint couldn’t give me reliable 4G LTE so Inam suppose to be excited about 5G
